That's not what he said and you know it, shut up.

My biggest issue with Epic is them very clearly doing the classic tactic of selling goods at unsustainably low prices in order to drive out competition before jacking them back up again. Their whole free game shtick can't possibly last forever and they know it.

I don't think every piece of media has to promote revolutionary politics in order to justify its existence.

Superman's primary villain is literally a white collar criminal that uses the system in order to stymie efforts to hold him accountable. A lot of superhero media could stand to be more critical of the police and prison system but it's a little more complicated to dismantle capitalism than it is to foil violent crime and respond to accidents and disasters.

I'm in the awkward position of being genuinely excited by this type of technology while desperately wishing literally anyone but Elon Musk was pushing them.

Long overdue but still an important step forward.

Funnily enough they also endorsed Trump before the 2020 election.

We need to make counter memes for this bullshit, everyone circlejerking each other over how hopeless the situation is doesn't help anyone.

This take is absolutely deranged and exactly the sort of thing I like to see here.

So called "anarchists" when you touch their pro-state.

I have no idea, I think it means whatever you want it to mean. Usually folks interpret it as visiting the sub and then going to a different one but you could also interpret it as leaving permanently, like I said it isn't actually enforced. It's just meant to encourage lots of irreverent posting.
